There are the four agreements one has to make with oneself厖

• Always try the best
• Do not make assumptions
• Do not take things personally
• Use the words impeccably.

Then again if one considers herself a fool, how can one start, in the state of being positive? This is next episode.

14 march 2007. Touchdown was at midnight. I searched for familiar faces, waiting patiently for the absence was already too much to bear. I saw them. One by one. She wasn抰 there.

I felt a sense of belonging. The air, the temperature, the familiar aura厖.

Hugs and kisses exchanged. Pleasantries, tears. We are one. Where is she? She wasn抰 well, but she prepared a feast. At home.

The ride home was pleasant. 3 cars. I was with them. How was life? Theirs, mine.Hmm....kita hanya merancang, Tuhan yang menentukan. Im back at my root. I wished to stay.

Ikan kembung goreng, and ulam. Just the way I like it. The rest was a blur. I didnt feel like eating much. jetlag. I was nervous too......And only I know the reasons why.

We stayed up until dawn. Then a few hours of sleep. Where do I start?

I was still thinking, of the last few months before this transition. Nightmares of one after another. Can I put back the pieces? This is life. And this is next episode of my life.

The next few days were busy. everything needs to be settled. I wanted to move out, as soon as I can. But we couldnt. It has to follow specifications. My specifications.

I couldnt sleep well. I'd wake up middle of the night, and find it very hard to go back to sleep. It was a habit, after the last few months of nightmares....

But I look well, I look good. So they say.

Alin and her alternative thinkings.....heheh, we think she might be a genius. So the transit took place, and pretty comfortable at that. he still remembers? I was pleasantly surprised!

And it continues.

And I shed tears again. today its the replay. It was meant to hurt. and it did.

friendship moved to the next level. you stared at the scrin and think. but we are all human. even fools are human, though sometimes they rush in. I cant think anymore. in this state of confusion.

23 of march. that was the first time. I checked, it was empty. not there, there or there. where messages usually are. I knew then, but didnt expect it. now what is it about not taking things personally? i didnt expect it. it was my heart. the heart wont let go. how do you blame that one?

I decided  thats the only way. since reconciliation is out of the question. I wanted to. god how I wanted to. I dream about it. even last night. I wanted to try again. just one more time. but it was a no go.

sampah and longkang. thats where everything are. even the sundays? even when everything took second place? those were worthless? I needed this. and things gets very complcated now.

foolsunlimited

the 28 of march.

the call finally. nervous, you bet. it was nice. in person. "you are a rarity" that was said. and something about "intelligent conversation" and the allergies of the chicken. oh come-on. no such allegies. but supposedly I were to be blamed.

next day sms says arms ok.

and the instalment idea was good. that was a MOU, signed.

thank god for a good friend.

intermission...

I think this is educational....and it comes from afar. now, what is wrong with the world these days, and limitation of words?

Swearing at Work
Dear Employees:

It has been brought to management's attention that some individuals
throughout the company have been using foul language during the course
of normal conversation with their colleagues.

Due to complaints received from some employees who may be easily
offended, this type of language will no longer be tolerated.

We do, however, realise the critical importance of being able to
accurately express your feelings when communicating with colleagues.

Therefore, a list of 13 New and Innovative "TRY SAYING" phrases have
been provided so that proper exchange of ideas and information can
continue in an effective manner.


1.
Try Saying:
I think you could do with more training

Instead Of:
You don't have a f***ing clue, do you?

2.
Try Saying:
She's an aggressive go-getter.

Instead Of:

3.
Try Saying:
Perhaps I can work late

Instead Of:
And when the f*** do you expect me to do this?

4.
Try Saying:
I'm certain that isn't feasible

Instead Of:
F*** off a*se-wipe

5.
Try Saying:
Really?

Instead Of:

Try Saying:
I'm not sure this can be implemented within the given timescale.

Instead Of:

10.
Try Saying:
It will be tight, but I'll try to schedule it in

Instead Of:
Why the f*** didn't you tell me that yesterday?

11.

Instead Of:
He's got his head up his f***ing a*se.

12.

Excuse me, sir?

Instead Of:

5th of April

The placement was today. she cried. and how come, it is not a pass or fail.

Was yesterday the end of a cycle, I cant really tell for sure. things we said, done, undone. from strangers to the whole cycle and about to become enemies....shall we rise above that?

we will go tomorrow. we have to see it again. the last time, it was very nice. kitchen is layered. smart. I havent seen anything like it. its a matter of preference now, no reasons for dispute. I chose festive colors...........

Im still waiting for the meeting. but we will have to move this evening. shes been alone. The matter was brought to my attention this morning, on the way to Langkawi. so it was decided we will go first, and the meeting will take place on Friday.

I was told there will be durian.....and thats good enough reasons for me.
